MLB’s ‘Monster Rookie’ Paul Skins
Paul Skins (22, Pittsburgh Pirates), the ‘monster rookie’ who appeared like a comet in the Major League Baseball (MLB) this season, once again displayed powerful pitching.
On the 12th (Korean time), Skins started in the away game against the Milwaukee Brewers held at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, and pitched 7 innings, striking out 11 batters, allowing no hits, and allowing no runs.
Pittsburgh won 1-0 in the top of the seventh inning with the winning run on a double by Yasmani Grandal.
Skins, who debuted last May, has started 11 games this season, recording 6 wins and 0 losses, lowering his ERA to 1.90.
With 89 strikeouts on the season, Skins became the first pitcher to have an ERA of 2.00 or lower in 11 games since ERA became an official statistic in 1913.
Skins also became just the second pitcher in history to throw six or more hitless innings in two separate seasons while striking out 11 or more batters. 안전놀이터
Before Skins, Nolan Ryan, known as the ‘epitome of fastballs’, achieved two no-hitters and no-runs in 1973, striking out 11 or more batters.
Skins, who was selected first overall by Pittsburgh in last year’s rookie draft, has been causing a stir since his debut in May.
He quickly emerged as one of the league’s top pitchers, with a fastball that reached speeds of over 160 km/h.
Skins was also selected as an All-Star in his debut season.
The Skins are the fifth rookie pitcher to play in the All-Star Game in Major League Baseball history, following Dave Stenhouse in 1962, Mark Fidrich in 1976, Fernando Valenzuela in 1981, and Hideo Nomo in 1995.
This year’s Major League Baseball All-Star Game will be held on the 17th at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, the home stadium of the Texas Rangers. 카지노 커뮤니티
